Caught up in your beauty

Excuse me...
if I didn't seem
that responsive to your last comment
for I was just caught up in your beauty.
Although we barely know each other
I'm already crazy about your smile
and if you don't mind too much
I'd like to check you out for awhile.
Because I'm sure looking to see
what you've been showing me.
And now I think I've identified
what my favorite parts would be
and the truth is I'm caught up in your beauty
and I like everything I see.
Surely it's no accident that
you have long black silky hair
and your gentle personality
really makes me think you care.
I appreciate...
the sensual way you brighten my day.
Seems while I'm caught up in your beauty
all my worries and heartaches go away.
So here I go again
staring right at you
and look now you've caught me
but what else can I do?
For it is almost impossible to hide
the admiration I have for this woman by my side
and as my fascination comes into play
"Hey...I'm caught up in your beauty
what else can I say"...

This is a subject you rarely talk about James, I mean someone's physical self.  You have always expressed someone's inner self more.  This is a a delightful change.....after all, if there is no phyisical attraction then it is unlikely there will be a relationship.  Speaking of which.....I noticed the last name?????

hehehe  I'm with Paula on this one!  And that better be the ONLY time he's not listening to what I say!  ROFLMAO  This was sweetly romantic.  Nothing nicer than just being in awe at what you see in someone.....*sigh*  There are men out there who have that effect on me too!  Just looking at them leaves me breathless....

Thank you Sudhir, serinity, Marina, X Angel, Paula, Femme, and English for the warm responses...
Yes Marina what you see on the outside sparks an interest to see the inside.
I had just told her my full name and she told me her last name was Lee also and at first I thought she was teasing...but she wasn't.  However, she just completed a divorce and perhaps she will resume her maiden name...her call...
Paula yes I was caught up...she was beside me looking straight ahead and I was turned towards her and found myself staring at her hair and the features of her face and totally fascinated by her beauty..captivated I believe and suddenly she turned towards me and said something and it took awhile to break my concentration...I absolutely didn't understand one word she said.
Yes Femme I was feeling exactly the same way...and it is a lovely place...to admire someones beauty...James

Very nice, James...to lose oneself in another for a moment (or more) can be a lovely preoccupation. I admire your honesty.

Thank you Claire, Jenn, passing, Cerenity, and rose for your wonderful comments.
I haven't given this poem to Mina yet...we were talking tonight on the phone and I described how I was caught up in the moment and she laughed and ask me if she was beautiful and I told her yes...yes..
She remembered that moment when she turned to me...I told her how I was admiring her hair and her nose and her lips and everything about her...she was happy...hopefully I'll see her on Tuesday...James
